“Beth did such an amazing job and was so patient with Betsy who can be very shy at first. Beth went the extra mile and came and met Betsy ahead of time to make her more comfortable. She sent updates of their walk and showed so much care towards Betsy. I highly recommend Beth, she is great with dogs and is a very reliable and outstanding dog walker!”

The best part of working with Lashae was the improvement in our dogs’ health! They have more energy and walk farther!! Lashae is the best! Can’t wait to work with her again!”

About: I have a lifetime of experience and have owned pets of all shapes & sizes from hamsters, ducks, chinchillas to cats & dogs. I'm skilled in administering medication and caring for elderly pets. I will care for and love your babies just like my own. If you have any questions feel free to reach out & ask! Between my fiancé’s and my work schedules, your pups won’t be alone for more than 4 hours at a time, so they’ll have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. On weekends, I’m completely free and will be 100% devoted to your pups! ❤️ I’ll make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while they’re with me. I have a large fenced dog with two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. They’re welcome to lounge on the furniture & I have no problem crating if that’s what you prefer.

About: I'm an experienced vet assistant, and have 4 fur babies of my own! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and petsit their pets for years. I have a diabetic cat, and am experienced with giving insulin, and administering other medications to cats/dogs. I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant. I'm available during my lunch break, most evenings and weekends to provide quality pet care 🙂 I'll walk your dog and clean up after them during the walk. I'll make sure there's enough food & water for your pet, and clean their bowls as needed.

About: I've been caring for pets for almost 10 years, including about 8 years of experience with both dogs and cats. I genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of dogs—from big to small, energetic to laid-back, and everything in between! I love getting to know each dog's personality and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which gives me great availability for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m able to work around your schedule and provide your pets with the attention and care they need. I’ll always care for your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether we’re out for a walk, enjoying some playtime, having a meal, or simply keeping each other company, I’ll make sure your pup feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for!

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have a cat named Pumpkin and a guinea pig named Cozy, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.

About: Being a pet owner (of all types) most of my adult life has blessed me in ways I can't even put into words. I have looked after 8 week old puppies as well as cared for the elderly. It would be my honor to look after and care for your four-legged family members in the same way I would want my "kiddos" to be looked after. I will always put them first and I will ensure that they receive the same love and affection that they would receive from you during every visit/stay. I love to send my clients pictures during those days/nights that they are away, and give them that assurance that their pet is in good hands and is being well cared for.

About: Hey! My name is Conan and Im a veterinary medicine student. I love working with animals of all types and sizes and I'd love to meet your friend! I have experience fostering and volunteering at animal shelters, including everything from dogs, cats, bottle-fed babies, elderly kitties, reptiles, ducks, chickens, special-needs dogs/cats, and birds. I am FEAR-FREE certified for dogs and cats as well! I have a few years of experience dog walking and I have house sat for people with all different pets & for varying amounts of time. I also have two cats and a leopard gecko of my own! They are my best friends and whole world. I'm currently going to Vet school full time several days during the week, but I'm available Friday through Monday for bookings. When house sitting I can spend as much time as is needed in the home for walks, playtime, any cleanups, potty breaks, etc. But I do prefer to sleep in my own home because of my two cats who need me at night. However I am flexible and if your pet has a specific need or doesn't do well being alone certain times of day we can work to accomodate that. Your pet's safety is a non negotiable for me, it is so important to me that your pet feels comfortable with me no matter what we're doing. Establishing a bond with an animal can be the most rewarding experience in the world! When talking about safety with any pet, I take a precautious approach with anything that could become an 'oops!' or a 'hey you, get that out of your mouth!' moment. So I will always take precautions with anything being left out unmonitored like toys, food, anything chewable, stringy, or soft toys, etc. I never want to have to think twice about a preventable accident with your pet, so I always take the time to keep everyone safe. This goes especially for walks, your dog or cat's safety is always going to be at the front of my mind when interacting with any other furry friends nearby, as it is always better to be safe than sorry. Every pet needs a different relationship approach, and different play styles! There are some pets who just want to cuddle, ones who need specific play-styles to be interested, and others who need someone up to the task of frizbee-ing the Tasmanian Devil out of them! I know personally one of my cats only wants to lazily swat at one specific toy he keeps losing, and the other wants to run and leap around for 20 minutes straight. I am dedicated to learning what your pet really likes so they have a great time with me, and you can go to work, over a friends, or on vacation without a worry that they living their best life.

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 7 years old who recently passed away. I live with my parents who are also fellow animal lovers and love when I pet-sit for friends. It brings life and fun to our household to host your furry friends. I currently work part time waitressing a few nights a week nearby. I am off weekends so I have all that time carved out to take care of pets! I have an unfenced, medium sized open field directly across from my condominium building I can take your pet for potty breaks and play time. I can keep them leashed for their safety. My parents, who I live with, are fellow animal lovers who love spending time with animals. I have a lazy cat who spends most of the day sleeping, but he lives upstairs in our split unit with my parents. My unit is entirely separate from where he resides, so if your pet doesn’t like cats, it’s no problem!

About: I have a lot of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds, including working at a barn where I help care for 9 horses and give riding lessons, along with experience around dogs and other pets. Being around a variety of animals has taught me how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs while staying attentive and responsible. What sets me apart is that I’m very comfortable reading animal behavior and staying calm in any situation. I’m confident with more energetic or nervous pets, and I’m also patient with older animals who may need a slower pace or extra care. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any small changes in behavior to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I’m reliable, quick to communicate, and I genuinely care about the animals I work with. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and able to fit pet care into my daily routine. I work part-time and spend time at a barn, but I plan my days around the animals I’m responsible for. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m good at sticking to a consistent routine that works best for your pet. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific care requests. I’m very aware of my surroundings, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are always supervised and safe. I also keep you updated so you feel comfortable and know your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had pets of my own, so I understand the importance of finding a great caregiver for all pets. All animals deserve love and respect, and I’m happy to help with all pet care needs! I work part time as a dental assistant, so I have time during weekends and most weekdays (Tues-Thurs) to take excellent care of your pets! I respect others home and take the best possible care of their pets. I’m always mindful of my surroundings and make sure I clean up after pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Carpenter is $22 per walk as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 8,627 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Carpenter. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Carpenter. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Carpenter after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Carpenter. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
